Type (Gestational, Traditional)
Gestational segment is estimated to dominate around 60% surrogacy market share by the end of 2036. Using the gestational surrogacy method, the intended parents' or donors' eggs and sperm are used to conceive the pregnancy, which is then carried by the surrogate. It has special advantages including removing the genetic link between the surrogate and the child, which resolves psychological and legal issues.
Additionally, same-sex couples, those interested in genetic variety, and individuals and couples with reproductive difficulties can benefit from gestational surrogacy. Also, the success rates of gestational surrogacy are increasing because to advancements in the precision of assisted reproductive technologies, namely in vitro fertilization (IVF). As per the information of National Library of Medicine; as of September 4, 2023, IVF has been used to conceive approximately 5 million children globally since 1978.
Technology (IVF with ICSI, IUI, IVF without ICSI)
By 2036, IVF with ICSI segment is projected to dominate over 38% surrogacy market share. In vitro fertilization (IVF) in conjunction with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is the dominant technology in the surrogacy business worldwide. In cases where conventional IVF methods may not yield the desired results, IVF with ICSI involves directly inserting a single sperm into an egg to initiate fertilization.
Male infertility has been found to benefit greatly from this approach. These days, many couples who are experiencing infertility choose to use this approach. It has become a dominant category due to its ability to treat a variety of infertility disorders and its consistently high success rates. More than 8 million IVF babies have been born, and more than 2.5 million cycles are carried out annually, translating into more than 500,000 births.

Europe Market Analysis
Europe surrogacy market size is predicted to cross USD 65 Billion by 2036. The region has adopted more innovative technology-based surrogacy treatments as a result of improved healthcare infrastructure. In order to encourage investment and innovation in healthcare, the European Union (EU) has also put in place a number of health programs. One such program is EU4Health, which was approved in March 2021 by European Commission and has a value of USD 5.12 billion.
In the United Kingdom, a notable rise in infertility-related problems among couples who aren't ready for kids is predicted to drive surrogacy market expansion in the upcoming years. More than 25 million people in the European Union suffer from infertility, according to the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology.
The market demand for surrogacy in Germany is driven by the rising number of infertility cases, the rising rate of gamete donations and sperm bank. Between 6.6 and 7.5% of women in Germany who are of reproductive age are currently infertile.
The demand for surrogacy is boosted by the rise in single-parent families and the legalization of single-parent surrogacy in France. According to the data, 2 million of the 8 million families that were looked at in 2020 had children living with just one parent, or "single-parent" families. This represents 24.7% of all French households.
In order to meet the changing needs of all parties involved in the process and achieve moral as well as legal compliance, the major players in the surrogacy market must concentrate on making adjustments and creating products that are in line with demand.
